< Psalms 127 >
1 [the] song of The ascents of Solomon if Yahweh - not he will build a house vanity - they have toiled builders its in it if Yahweh not he will watch over a city vanity - he has kept awake [the] watchman.
所羅門上行之詩。 若不是耶和華建造房屋, 建造的人就枉然勞力; 若不是耶和華看守城池, 看守的人就枉然警醒。
2 Vanity [belongs] to you - [who] rise early to rise [who] delay to sit [who] eat [the] bread of labors thus he gives to beloved [one] his sleep.
你們清晨早起,夜晚安歇, 吃勞碌得來的飯,本是枉然; 惟有耶和華所親愛的,必叫他安然睡覺。
3 Here! [the] inheritance of Yahweh [is] sons [is] a reward [the] fruit of the womb.
兒女是耶和華所賜的產業; 所懷的胎是他所給的賞賜。
4 Like arrows in [the] hand of a warrior so [are] [the] sons of youth.
少年時所生的兒女 好像勇士手中的箭。
5 How blessed! [is] the man who he has filled quiver his from them not they will be ashamed if they will speak with enemies in the gate.
箭袋充滿的人便為有福; 他們在城門口和仇敵說話的時候, 必不至於羞愧。
